[Analysis of the influence of enzyme preparations produced using technological microorganisms on the microbiome and cellular immunity of rats].

The observed increase in the production of enzyme preparations (EP) using mutant and genetically modified microorganisms makes it necessary to assess their risks to consumer health. However, at present, their possible influence on the microbiome, immune status of the macroorganism has not been sufficiently studied. of the research was to assess the effect of two EP - the complex of hydrolases with proteolytic and nuclease activity from the Aspergillus oryzae RCAM 01134 mutant strain (EP1) and the neutral protease - bacillolysin and serine protease from the Bacillus subtilis-96 (VKM B-3499D) mutant strain (FP2) on the intestine microbiome and cellular immunity indices of the experimental animals.

Influence of Bacterial Nanocellulose Consumption on the Content of Macronutrients and Trace Elements in the Organs of Rats.

Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) prepared by the methods of "green" bionanotechnological synthesis is considered a promising food additive and food ingredient. At the same time, the risk of reducing the bioavailability of minerals due to their adsorption on BNC fibers having a high specific surface area and high adsorption and ion exchange capacity cannot be excluded. We studied the effect of oral administration of BNC on the accumulation of macronutrients and trace elements included in the diet in the liver and kidneys of laboratory animals.

The Influence of a High-Cholesterol Diet and Forced Training on Lipid Metabolism and Intestinal Microbiota in Male Wistar Rats.

Adequate experimental animal models play an important role in an objective assessment of the effectiveness of medicines and functional foods enriched with biologically active substances. The aim of our study was a comparative assessment of the effect of consumption of 1 or 2% cholesterol with and without regular (two times a week), moderate running exercise on the main biomarkers of lipid and cholesterol metabolism, as well as the intestinal microbiota of male Wistar rats. In experimental rats, a response of 39 indicators (body weight, food consumption, serum biomarkers, liver composition, and changes in intestinal microbiota) was revealed.

Toxicological Characteristics of Bacterial Nanocellulose in an In Vivo Experiment-Part 1: The Systemic Effects.

Unlabelled: Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) is being considered as a potential replacement for microcrystalline cellulose as a food additive and a source of dietary fiber due to its unique properties. However, studies on the risks of consuming BNC in food are limited, and it is not yet approved for use in food in the US, EU, and Russia.

Aim: This study aims to perform a toxicological and hygienic assessment of the safety of BNC in a subacute 8-week administration in rats.

[Methods for the identification and quantification of microplastics in foods (a review)].

The adverse effects of microplastics (MP) found in food on the health have recently been recognized as a new source of human health risks. In order to evaluate and minimize them, it is necessary to evaluate the exposure using sensitive and specific methods. of the research was the substantiation of methodological approaches to the identification and quantification of microplastics in food based on the analysis of literature data.
